Is It Possible to Replace the Lock of a Safe

A good safe can make the precious items in your home feel that much safer. They can be used to keep valuables away from potential burglars, keep guns away from inquisitive young ones, and keep your paperwork in a safe and secure location. Having a good safe in your home can reduce anxiety as you know the important things are in a safe place.

However, a day may come when you consider changing the lock on your safe. But first, you need to know if changing a safe lock is even a plausible option.

Here’s the truth of the matter.

Why Change a Lock on a Safe?

There are many reasons for wishing to change a safe lock.

 

  • Safe keys have gone missing.
  • Too many people have the code.
  • You may wish to upgrade the lock to a biometric or electronic option.
  • You may wish to change the lock to a dial for a more vintage look.
  • The original lock malfunctioned.
  • The lock is damaged.

Changing a safe lock is cheaper, in most cases, than replacing the whole safe.

Can Any Locksmith do It?

Because locksmiths are experts in all things security, most locksmiths are capable of changing safe locks.

However, changing locks when they have no original key or code to open the safe requires a locksmith with great experience and knowledge as they will first have to break into the safe. This often happens when someone inherits a safe upon the death of a relative but cannot find a code or key.

If you are unsure, check with your locksmith first.

Do You Need a Lock Replacing?

Bottom line, it is a simple matter for an experienced locksmith who has the proper training and expertise to replace a safe lock on almost any make and model of security safe.

If you have a safe that you wish to replace the lock on contact Quickly Locksmith on (305) 984-9922, or through our contact us page, to learn how we can help you.

    We truly care about your security. Keeping you, your family and your most valuable possessions safe is why we are in business. However, whenever you are looking to hire a residential locksmith service, here are some valuable tips to make the right choice.

    FAQ

    HOW DO I KNOW WHETHER MY MIAMI LOCKSMITH IS CERTIFIED?
    When a Miami locksmith completes their official application process, they are issued with a Locksmith ID car. Locksmiths in Miami are required to display this card at all times when performing any services, regardless of the location.
    HOW LONG WILL A LOCKSMITH TAKE TO ARRIVE?
    When you’re working with the Quickly Locksmith Miami team, you can expect someone to arrive at your exact location within 15 minutes. This ensures we can get you back into your home or car as soon as possible.
    WHAT DOES A CERTIFICATION GUARANTEE?
    Your certified Miami locksmith’s work comes with a complete warranty for your locks, your property (doors/ hallways, etc.), and of course your well-being. If anything happens you share no liability, and your locks & security systems are 100% insured.
    CAN A MIAMI LOCKSMITH OPEN ALL LOCKS?
    A locksmith that has the right tools and years of experience can open almost any lock. If that’s not an option, the lock can always be replaced. Either way, your home and valuables will be safe and secure.
    CAN AN AUTO LOCKSMITH CREATE A SPARE KEY AT MY LOCATION?
    When you are locked out of your car, the last thing you want to do is arrange a ride to a locksmith shop. The Quickly Locksmith Miami mobile unit will not only meet you at your location but also help you with a replacement car key on the spot.
    DO I NEED THE ORIGINAL KEY TO MAKE A KEY COPY?
    Not necessarily. If your original key has been lost or is damaged, a Miami locksmith can use a code cutter to identify the depth of grooves in a lock’s key code. This information can then be used to create a new key.
